Just get a Samsung. I have a cheapo Galaxy Tab A 10.1 and can't complain.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

[Mark]

300 bucks here.

other 2 are around 100.

 

[s4tch]

any good cheap tablets you could suggest?

I read about Fire HD 7-8 and Vankyo MatrixPad S7-8.

Can't use google stuff on the Fire[there are hacks but will they still work later?]. No gps on it.
Vankyo got everything.

lenovo tab 4 8? we have 2 in the family. very good screen, decent speed, zero gimmicks.

Wankyou sounds like it would be suitable for you.

Hmm, was only 199,- for me. Best go with a Lenovo then, like s4tch said.

The less money one spends on a tablet, the more money one can spend on maple syrup and poutine.

why can't you go for the oneplus? budget, size, availability? what's your budget and key requirements?

Availability, not available by my provider sadly. I ended up going with the s20 because I'm impulsive and wanted it done

this guy is a genius when it comes to anything related to imaging. he's responsible for most of the distinguished features of google camera app, and lately he moved to work for adobe to develop a universal camera app. my only gripe is that it's adobe, so expect their usual fucked up subscription scheme once it's released. but i bet levoy will deliver.

in case anyone is interested, here's a course on digital imaging by him:

Anyone else laughing at ios14?

Losing their minds over widgets and being able customise the feel and look of their phone?

Yo dawg i heard you like to steal data from other companies. So while Xi's daughter is captive for having spied, you ended up making a made in china android

i'm in the same dilemma

sony (5 is good, both generations)
samsung
sharp (aquos zero 2 looks decent)
some other smaller brands without support

but bottom line is that android will run on these anyway, so just get a pixel 4a and you'll never be happier with an android device

btw i'd seriously consider running sailfish if it was available and supported for my old phone. looks fancy: https://sailfishos.org/

tthere are some linux phones too if you're a true geek, like
https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/ or there's an other commercial model called pinephone or something similar
